Snape called Lily "mudblood" for the same reason that Draco calls 
Hermione "mudblood" because she is Muggleborn.

IMO Lily is linked with every male in her year because she is the 
only female character for that generation in the series.  With 
Harry's generation we have a number of pairings for our discussions.
